Feel the Dubai coastline at full speed

A jet ski ride is one of the most exciting ways to see Dubai from the water. You head out from the beach with an instructor, then open the throttle and cruise along a coastline that includes the Marina towers, Palm Jumeirah and the unmistakable sail of Burj Al Arab.

Every ride starts with a short safety briefing and a quick lesson on the controls, so first-timers feel confident. On the water your guide leads the group at a comfortable pace, stops for photos at the best viewpoints and lets you speed up when the sea is clear.

Choose a 30 minute ride for a quick thrill or the 60 minute Burj Al Arab tour for the full sightseeing route. Two people can share one jet ski, so it works well for couples, friends and families with older children.
